COnyestfon of the Kidneys.


 s J. Thompson of No. 479 Swan street, Buffalo, N. Y, writes of his remarkable cure of congestion of the kidneys:
 Three years ago was attacked with con- gestion of the kidneys. My phy -ician, be- sides administering internal remedies, had applied on my back over the affected region two Allcock's Porous Plasters. I recovered in the course of about two weeks. A year after exposure brought a similar attack but it seemed if the congestion was more severe. Certainly had more pain and diff culty in passing water. Instead of calling a doctor this time I concluded to try plasters alone, so purchased box of Allcock's Por- ous Plasters and applied two fresh ones every day. The pain quickly lessened, the water flowed more freely after the first application, and in just six days was completely restored snd able to resume my occupation.

sUPr. STEVENSON RESIGNS.
He Has A Better POsItion-Contract For The Mamaroneck Depot Let.

He Has A Better PoSttIOn-COntract For The MamarOneck Depot Let. The fact was made known Saturday at the directors meeting of the Consolidated road in New York, much to the regret of the trav- ellers of that road, that Mr. William H. Stevenson, who for nearly five years has been the manager or superintendent of the New York division of the New York and New Haven railroad, had resigned that position to accept larger, better and more responsible place elsewhere.
 The career of Mr. Stevenson has been an almost phenomenal one. He is still a young man, younger even in appearance than he ac tually is, but his reputation as successful railroad executive officer is second to that of no man ia the United States Thirteen years ago, when almost boy, Mr. Stevenson was appointed superintendent of the Shore Line division, that portion of the New York and Boston railroad running between New Haven and New London. For eight years he man aged this division, which is a single track line, but one of important traffic, so success fully that when, about five years ago, the New York division of he New Haven road had reached deplorable state in which ac- eidents were quite common and such a thing discipline was practically l unknown, the directors of that road, by a common impulse tul ned to him the one man who could straighten out it's undisc- plined condition and bring it into safe and systematic course of operation.
 The magnitude of this undertaking will be appreciated by all when it is stated that up ward of one hundred and twenty five trains a day upon this division, and that during Mir. Stevenson's administrative term of nearly five years there has never been a | serious accident, and that moreover the road has done so well financially that the 1st of January last passenger rates between all stations were materially reduced. NIT. Stew enson will most assuredly carry the we'll wishes of all his associates and subordinates of the New York and New Haven railroad with him into his new and enlarged field of operations.
 MT. Stevenson's resignation will take effect on the first of next month. The next month ly meeting of the directors of the road will be held on the second Saturday in March. MT. Stevenson is to be the general manager of the New York & New England road.
 Vice President Reed says that he doesn't wish to name the gentleman yet who has been considered available to succeed MT. Stevenson.
 The board of directors at their meeting on Saturday also let the contract for building the Mamaroneck depot to George Mertz & Son, of Portchester, N. Y.

THE SEA SERPENT AGAIN.

The Mystic Press of Friday contained the
 followi story of the sighting of the sea ser
 pent in that region:
 Captain G. Courtland Paine reports at the
 Press office that while hauling lobster pots
 not far from Middle Ledge on Monday, the 7th, he was astonished and startled on
 strengthening up and looking in the direction
 of the ledge by seeing some five or six hundred feet from him what he thinks must have been
 veritabe serpent The creature was black and his head and body, which reached forward little arching, extended six
 to eight feet out of the water, be ing the whole length as big as a laif
 barrel The head was shaped something like
 that of an eel. He no eyes, He was be- tween the captains boat and the ledge, and was moving with tremendous speed to the eastward, making great comm"tion ir the water The captain had left his sloop and was in a small boat, and was so alarmed, he says, that if the creature had turned any nearer ill his direction he should have start l ed for his sloop in hurry. The serpent was l visible but short time, but long enough for | the captain to be satisfied that he was as near as he wanted to be to such monster. Cap l tain Paine is a reliable man, aud we see no reason to doubt his statement regarding what l hs saw on Monday.

VERNON, TEX, May 6, 1887;
To the Editor of the Gazette.
Believing your paper interested in the
settlement and development of Northwest
Texas write you for publication On
subject believe to be of more interest to
the settlers of Northwest Texas than any
other subject, not excepting the liquor
traffic. Wilbarger and Hsrdeman counties
have been declared by the Land Board sg-
ricultural counties and not subject
to the lease system, and nearly
every section Of school land
in these counties has been
taken up by the actual settler who comes
into those counties with their families
and their little bunch of stock, and are
preparing their land, and not far in the
future will be seen beautiful farms and
prosperous farmers, but there is a great
difficulty and serious obstacle in the way
of those farmers. Large cattle corpora
tions and their hands are
now and have been for some
time surrounding these farms
with their herds Oh cattle VINO are saun-
tering through the country with their
u6IuS vi CdLIlSt JIG jdKnlSI6
lite bunch of cattle and driving them
from their accustomed range, annoying
the farmer, as he has to quit his work on
the farm in the busy season Of the year
and watch the cattle companies and their
large herds to try to keep them of his
section of land, diseasing his cattle with
Spanish fevers and giving his plOW horses
the pink eye, besides running all the stock

farmer gets disheartened and will have to
abandon his farm unless he can be pro-
tected by our state laws. When rail-
road goes through 8 country il pays the
owners of the land through which it runs
for the right of way, also for any damage
by burning grass or killing stock, but cat
tie companies are now allowed TO herd
their cattle over the country up and
down the water courses, running the stock
water and eating of the grass on land
that belongs to the farmer for which he
psys the taxes and has purchased, on
which the cattle companies fatten their
herds at the expense and annoyance OF
the settler. The cattle companies have
plenty of money and hands to herd their
cattle and protect their interests, while
the farmer is poWerless to en-
force the. law against them
His cattle are diseased and driven from
their accustomed range, his plow horses
have pink eye and other contagious dis
eases. The farmer has not the time nor
money to protect mis- little bunch OF cattle
from being absorbed by the cattle comps-

ing cattle from their accustomed range
without the consent of the owner; also
against herding cattle within half Of a
mile of residence. JUSTICE.
